[@Fallenreaper] I'll try and send you some lore regarding Uskriss' shamanistic magic system, and how his creation myth is still viable, in the light of the Greek Pantheon and all. Also S1GL's background, and Angel's relations with STRIKE.

I covered the shamanistic system but left it as vague as possible since I knew there was Uskriss. Hopefully there won't be any issues and if there are we'll work those out. I left a lot of openings so it should work with any magic type or hero one wants to use or create.

There are different types of magic that each user typically will only master one type of magic. The Arcane stream is the standard people like Merlin, Mages, Sorcerers all tap into it. The Arcane Stream is the magic of Merlin and other sorcerers that can be molded into various effects. The Beyond is the amalgamation of an realm of arcane energy that grasps several dimensions. Dimensional Planes are connected by magical leylines. Merlin uses wards and magical locations to stop dimensional bleeding. - Gowi
 
Shamans have spirit magics those that command or commune with nature and spirits. They'll form pacts with nature or bind them to their wills to wield the power of nature and the elements. 

Witchcraft focuses on potions, brews, talismans and all sorts of incantations spells and hexes. 

Beyond that are various other types of magics like Necromancy, Technomancy, Specific branches and whatnot. There are those with powers that mimic magic, and those all in between. Mostly as long as they don't change the basic principles like Necromancy controls the dead to say instead it allows one to control minds then I won't bother and consider it an alternate form of magic.
